Quick answer
A DHEA blood test measures dehydroepiandrosterone, a steroid hormone made primarily by the adrenal glands and used by the body to produce sex hormones. It may be ordered when a provider is evaluating adrenal function, symptoms that could relate to hormonal imbalance, or changes in energy and well-being. Results are interpreted with age, sex, and additional testing.
About this test in Blue Ridge
DHEA is a precursor hormone that the body converts into androgens and estrogens. Production is highest in early adulthood and gradually declines, which is why reference ranges depend on age and sex. Because unconjugated DHEA can fluctuate more than its sulfated form, a provider may order it together with DHEA sulfate for a fuller view.
The test uses a serum sample collected from a vein, and some laboratories prefer a morning collection. Results are reported as a concentration with a reference range from the performing laboratory, and they are usually reviewed alongside related hormones such as cortisol or testosterone when those are part of the evaluation.
People may order this test when investigating adrenal function, hormonal symptoms, or fertility questions, or when a provider wants to monitor a known condition. It is not a diagnosis on its own. A qualified healthcare provider should interpret the result in the context of your symptoms and history.
